Viega 84445 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size branch does the Viega MegaPress 84445 tee reduce to?
The 84445 MegaPress tee is a 2 inch x 2 inch x 1/2 inch reducing tee, so the run stays at 2 inch press on both ends and the branch drops to 1/2 inch press. It's the fitting you use to pull a small branch (gauge, drain, drop, sensor tap) off a 2 inch carbon steel main without reducing the main line.
2) Will a carbon steel MegaPress tee work on a potable water line?
No, carbon steel is the wrong material for potable water. The 84445 is a carbon steel body intended for black iron and carbon steel piping systems. For potable work you want a copper or stainless press fitting instead, in the same size run.
3) What does Smart Connect mean on a Viega MegaPress fitting, and does it mean I can skip pressing?
Smart Connect is Viega's unpressed-connection feature: a fitting that has not been pressed will leak during pressure test, so the installer finds it before the system goes into service. It is a verification aid, not a joint. Every one of the three ports on the 84445 still has to be pressed with the correct jaw.
4) What exact part number should I order for a Viega 2 x 2 x 1/2 MegaPress tee?
Order Viega MegaPress part number 84445. That number covers the carbon steel 2 inch x 2 inch x 1/2 inch reducing press tee with Smart Connect. Distributors cataloguing it will also see UPC 691514844459. It is made in Germany.
5) Is the Viega 84445 tee heavy enough to need support near the branch?
The tee weighs 2.451 lbs on its own, which is light relative to 2 inch carbon steel pipe. The load that matters is the pipe, not the fitting, so support the 2 inch run per your normal hanger spacing and keep any weight (valve, gauge manifold, drop) off the 1/2 inch branch rather than hanging it from the tee.
